Something to consider is how many recreational bass fishermen there are today as compared to maybe 3 or 4 years ago... Because there are so many people fishing for bass, the stocks could be wiped out very quickly without anyone noticing it until its too late. For all we know this is happening now.
Not only do we need to save the bait, but We need a saltwater liscence to raise funds to protect the bass. those funds could go twards stricter enforecement of the current laws, or the $$ could go twards making bass a gamefish... who knows
